Author’s Note
Portions of this chapter were presented in the symposium, Where Buddhism and Psychology Meet:
Perspectives on Empowerment, at the 1999 American Psychological Association Convention, Boston,
Massachusetts, August 19–23. A lengthy, slightly modified excerpt from Resources for Stress
Resistence: Parallels in Psychology and Buddhism (1993) appears in this chapter with the permission
of Saka Gakkai International-USA. I wish to thank Guy McCloskey and Greg Martin for their
perceptive comments on an earlier draft of this manuscript.
